The Just Pushit Book

My full name is Jaime Alexis Morales Gotay, you can call me Jaime, like saying hello to the month of May. Hi May! I was born and raised in Puerto Rico. At a young age I took on two passions: Art and Sports. I started drawing, painting and sketching since I was 10 years old and also I started learning how to swim and compete in swim meets. By the age of 12 I had become a champion swimmer in the 100 meters breast stroke. By the age of 16 I moved on to the sport of triathlon where I competed in over 40 races. All throughout I taught myself how to draw like a comic book artist and Disney animator by pausing the Disney VHS tapes and sketching the characters over and over until I reached my goal. In 2001, I went to Savannah College of Art and Design in Savannah, Georgia to get my Bachelor's Degree in Hand Drawn Animation with a minor in illustration. In the meantime, I traveled to Canada, Cancun, Puerto Rico, San Francisco, New York City and The Hamptons to compete in Olympic distance triathlons. In 2008, I moved to New York City to become a trainer and bootcamp instructor at Equinox Gym Greenwich Avenue location. I left to continue my health and fitness journey on my own terms in 2015. I spent my days, time and energy learning and mastering the human body, psyche and emotions. I realized that all we really need is 8 hours of sleep, mindfulness, a passion for something we love, sex a few times a week and the best company of family and friends anyone can have... oh, and working out with me... JAIMEFIT! I play tennis when I can. I sing and dance and workout a lot. I've done improv courses and live performances at The Magnet Theater as well as stand up comedy at the Comedy Cellar. I am a published author and small business owner. I have a personal training studio in Chelsea located at 219 WEST 16 STREET called THE HEALTHY CREW GYM + ART GALLERY + HEALING CENTER. I have a beautiful cat, her name is Princess. I say that I am a CAT: COMIC ARTIST TRAINER.
